Getting a new card today but can't pick between the BFG or XFX version. They're nearly identical. Which company do you prefer?
 
i like both. both have lifetime warranties, but xfx is now double lifetime (lifetime to the original purchaser and then person they sell the card to ) if you register it and a lot more lenient as far as mods to the card go.
 
Other than warranty....get the cheapest...both are the same card under the stickers. I have used XFX, Gigabyte, BFG, Leadtek, eVGA, none were a problem. I like that XFX supports the forum here and has a presence, not to mention the specials they offer sometimes...but when I bought this 8800GT, XFX was out of stock for weeks...I could not wait, and Gigabyte was in stock :-/
 
The warranty on the BFG card is void as soon as you overclock or remove the heatsink.

Not so on XFX.

This is actually why I originally asked about XFX vs BFG. I want the XFX 8800GTS 512MB XXX Edition but I can't find the damn thing anywhere. Granted, it was just released yesterday, but all of the other new G92 GTSs are for sale. So it's either wait for the XFX to show up on newegg or get BFG's 8800GTS OC 512MB.

Thats a pretty low overclock from the xxx edition, even msi ramped up the clock to 730mhz in their card.
